Hi there!
my name is Benjamin Schweizer and I live in Heilbronn/Germany. I am a passionate computer programmer and open source enthusiast. I like Dilbert and XKCD.
This is my personal blog. Here you can find articles and source code don't fit in anywhere else.
If you would like to keep in touch with me, please add me on Google+ or Facebook. You can also find my resume on Xing and Linked In.

301

301 is an uri redirector. It allows you to create short links for complex web addresses. Just submit a longish uri at 301.sickos.org, and you will get a short link that points to the original address. You can pass this on twitter, in irc or whereever you want to avoid complex web addresses.

This service was inspired by tinyurl.com and monkey.org/sl. In contrast to their services, 301 comes along with full python source code. This gives you the freedom to run your own 301 service and adopt it to your own needs. Get the source code at benjamin-schweizer.de/files/301/.
